I bought a basys3 artix-7 FPGA Trainer board off of Amazon (seller: digilent), in an attempt to learn FPGA programming.
I am having problems programming the flash. I was going through the abacus tutorial on youtube, and had few problems downloading to the FPGA via Jtag, and getting the tutorial to work.
The problem was programming the Flash. The particular board I am using has the Macronix part number MX25L3233FMI-08G 32Mb flash.
I downloaded the 2016.4 as per the tutorial, but the version of Vivado did not offer the particular Macronix flash as a programming option.
I tried the spansion version of the flash (size and structure similar) using Vivado 2016.4, but not surprisingly, this produced errors.
I tried to download the latest version of Vivado, but it looked totally foreign, and I didn't want to try to figure out how to get it to work.
So is there a version of Vivado that offers Macronix 32Mb flash?
What are my options to get the flash to program?
Buy the Spansion version of the flash and solder it in?
